Drawing on the multidisciplinary expertise of philosophers, anthropologists, historians, linguists, and scholars of religion and the Bible, the volume investigates the ways that spirit possession narratives, events, and rituals are often interwoven around communicative acts, both between spiritual and earthly realms and between members of a community.

It will be an important resource for scholars from a diverse range of disciplines, including religion, anthropology, history, linguistics, and philosophy"--
